Document Summary

Where n is the total population size, n1 is the number of individuals marked and released in the population at time t1. If i marked 16 individuals, then captured 20 individuals, 4 or which were marked, how many total individuals in the population? (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1: 80. Now that we know the distribution is not random, how do we determine if it is regular or clumped? (cid:1) If the mean per square to variance ration >1 the distribution is regular, <1 clumped (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) What is the effect of grid size on analysis. Uses a quantitative measure of indirect evidence of the presence or absence of individuals (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) An index of relative abundance for bama tailgaters would not be: # bags of trash from the quad, motorhomes parked in commuter lots, beer sales in tuscaloosa, census of people on the quad 2 hours before kick-off.
